30 B4 Thirty

Start Date: Feburary 5, 2013
End Date: January 18, 2018
Total Time: 4 Years, 11 Months

1. Save at LEAST $100 on groceries using coupons.
**Disclaimer~I would love to be an extreme couponer but do not have the time, effort, or space to create a stock pile... therefore I will start by saving at least $100.

2. Run two 5K races per month for an entire year!
**I am working toward this goal this year, I am running my first race at the end of February.

3. Create, hand address, stamp, and mail out annual Christmas cards!


4. Attend the gym 3/5 times every week for a year.
**A year might be pushing it but I will give it a go!!

5. Read a new book every month for a year.
**Reading is one of my new found loves but I have discovered that I find good books and then put them down after getting distracted with life so I want to hold myself accountable for finishing 1 per month.

6. Start or join a book club with people around my same age.

7. Get to a goal weight of 155 lbs. by eating right and exercising.

8. Start and be successful at taking and editing pictures.
** I have wanted to start my own business before but have not yet because of timing and money so I hope by setting this goal I will complete it.

9. Organize every room in my house completely and make them all functional.

10. Take a vacation and visit Seattle, WA

11. Regularlly post on my blog for a year.
**I am always really good at doing this but again I always get busy and caught up in everyday life then forget to post.


12. Reach at least 50 follower on my blog.

13. Complete an entire month of instagram photoaday challenge.

14. Go skiing.
**I have been once in my lifetime and loved it. I am excited to get back out there and try again.

15. Go on a cruise.

16. Successfully potty train Jayden.
**Seeing as he is two now and will be 8 by the time I turn 30 I sure hope he is potty trained!!!

17. Build a "nest egg" of $5,000

18. Rent/buy a HOUSE.
**I have rented apartments 2 times now and I am done with that living situation. I need a yard for my babies (Kalli and Jayden) to play in.

19. Pay off all credit card debt.
**I am like most kids and when I got that first offer and was told not to get one I didn't listen... Then the next came in, and the next... you get the picture. Anyway in the end I had 7 cards all charged up and wasn't working so I'd say I had a bit of a sticky situation. I am on the path to recovery but it will be a bit before I am finished.

20. Pay off my car.
**March of 2012 I traded in my used Kia Soul for a new one but had to have my dad cosign for me. I wasn't making the payments at first because I was getting on my feet but as of October I began making my payments and I am excited to be able to say I paid it off.

21. Teach Jayden to ride a bike.

22. Play on a slow pitch softball team for @ least 1 season.

23. Write in a gratitude journal everyday for a year.

24. Get my own grade level classroom.
**While I am glad I have a job and just getting to be around the kids is great, I am bored and need my own classroom with a set curriculum and structure that is mine and mine only.

25. Stay off of Pinterest for an entire week.
**This is probably very simple to most but for me it's as complicated as running those 5K races.

26. Get a tattoo on my ribs.
**I have always wanted one in this location but have been too chubby to get it there so it will be an encentive to get my a** in gear and loose the weight!

27. Donate all but 10-15 pairs of shoes.
**At one time in my life, my uncle counted at least 75 pairs.

28. Complete as many DIYcrafts off my Pinterest board.

29. Go to at least one Cowboy's Game.
**I live right here and have never been to one, almost sad to say that I consider myself a fan without even going to a game!

30. Become completely financially independent from my parents.
**I live on my own and pay most of my bills but occassionally I run short and they pick up where I can't make it. While I am extremely greatful for their help, I want to be responsible and complete this on my own!
